Nothing to worry about at all, those Mirage F1s are old tech and even the latest 'updated' variant is 20 years behind the curve. In fact, France has been hawking these things around for years now, and it now seems that Spain have actually found someone stupid enough to buy theirs.

If the Argies did send these into Falkland's airspace then they'd be knocked out of the sky before they knew what hit 'em. It's just more nonsense and bluster from a failed third-world nobody.

At least the islands are supposedly a bit better defended than they were in 1982 when they had virtually nothing more than a small Royal Marines garrison and their own tiny Falklands Islands Defence Force. If the Argies try something again, the RAF base there will know they are coming at least.

Argentina is apparently headed for recession next year according to news reports on the web and this no doubt explains Ms Fernandez de Kirchner's increasingly batty outbursts and Spain is in a deep and prolonged recession with truely MASSIVE youth unemployment with seemingly no end in sight so that's the reason Spain's government is diverting their people's attention onto the issue of Gibraltar once again. It's all very predictable.

Thousands of people have taken part in a protest against Argentinian President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner days before crucial elections. Some dressed in prison uniforms to depict Ms Fernandez and her late husband and former president Nestor Kirchner behind bars.Argentina: Thousands At Anti-Fernandez Rally

Argentinians should be thankful to us for the Falkland's War. They were liberated from a dictatorship which was pretty brutal and made many people 'disappear' and they became a democracy. Infact, Argentina is MORE democratic than we are in at least one sense. They have a fair voting system of Proportional Representation - something Labour and Tory continue to deny us.
